Lets's calculate LCM of 664,5711
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3792104
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/3792104
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3422/664,4996/5711 is 2/3792104
The formula of LCM is LCM(a1,a2,a3....,an) = ( a1 × a2 × a3 × .... × an) / GCF(a1,a2,a3....,an) x common factors(if more than 2 numbers have common factors).
We need to calculate greatest common factor of 664,5711 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(664,5711) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(664,5711) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(664,5711) = ( 664 × 5711 ) / 1
LCM(664,5711) = 3792104 / 1
LCM(664,5711) = 3792104
